New highlights

Malevolence – If It's All The Same To You

'KICK IT!' Yeah, man. It being possibly 'your head in', 'your arse' or 'out the jams'. Whichever, Sheffield shit-kickers Malevolence have returned with a banger here, full of groovy, Pantera-ish riffs and aggro chonk. Plus, for extra bad boi points, they got Brick Top from Snatch in the video. The only man, we imagine, who can tell Alex Taylor to fuck off like that and get away with it. Welcome back, lads.

YUNGBLUD – Hello Heaven, Hello

It's nine minutes long. It sounds like the ’90s. He's out in the snow without so much as a shirt to keep him warm. Didn't expect any of this from YUNGBLUD's next move, we won't lie. And what's this? A massive, Jimmy Page-ish guitar solo over a load of epic strings? Why, yes. All of which is grand stuff, obviously, and a very welcome surprise from Dom, there.

SOFT PLAY feat. Kate Nash – Slushy

Here we have Tunbridge Wells two SOFT PLAY teaming up with Brit singer Kate Nash for a bratty punk jam about someone, metaphorically, sucking 'all the flavour out of my slushy'. 'What a prick,' declares Kate at one point. A sentiment to which we can all relate.
